Any towing difference between 8' or 8.5' width?

I'm looking at getting an overall shorter trailer, but perhaps wider. Currently we have a Sprinter 311BHS that is 8' wide (before they went wide body) and am looking at an AF 25W that is 8.5'. Overall...

Most snowmobile trailers are now 102". I have an enclosed trailer that I drag into remote areas and no big problem.

One thing not yet brought up is aerodynamic drag, the wider the trailer, the more fuel consumed.
